As a politician, Pedro Figari helped in Parliament to legislate against bullfights in Uruguay at the beginning of XX century. Stil, according to his writings, he kept admiring the courage, the emotion, the colour. Having seen the bulfights in his own country, he must have done so once in Europe, and when he painted them in his Paris studio, he was surely evoking all of them.

Pedro Figari était député, et comme un tel il a aidé a combatre les courses de taureaux en Uruguay au début du siècle XX.. Mais, selon il l'a écrit, il a toujours continué à y admirer le courage, l'émotion, la couleur. Il a vu les courses en Uruguay, et a continué à en jouir en Europe, et quand il les a peint dans son atelier de Paris, sans doûte il les évoquait.
